[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1827276, member: 498"] It is actually because the cell walls in the plants haven't hardened allowing the grass to break down faster. Take some very early young grass and make hay out of it. Also some over ripe stemy grass. Make hay out of it. Feed separately. Note the manure from each hay source. Being n hay they both have about the same water content. The cow pies from the early young grass will very flat nearly watery. Those from the over ripe grass will be piled high. The difference is in the maturity of the cell walls in the grass. Not the water content. [/QUOTE]
